Is the official omni lollipop out yet for hammerhead? I've been running my own builds for awhile.

That I know, Omnirom 5 is not official yet on any device, shouldn't be too far away though ...

 

[sparksco]

OK. I don't see any bugs listed. Just a few I've had on my omni builds so far with gapps.

-Google now launcher won't work at all.
-inbox by gmail force closes
-goolge drive force closes

Are the same bugs present on this rom?

I don't have any of those bugs, it's been my daily driver for 2 months, I use Google Now Launcher, Inbox for about a month, and no issue with Google drive either.
The only real issue I had so far, is a known Lollipop issue on Mako, camera is a bit slow to start, around 2 seconds.

 

[sparksco]

Because I don't have any of the bugs you're listing ? It has been my daily driver for about 2 months, and Google now launcher is the launcher I use, same for inbox, and no issue with google drive. Did you wipe data before flashing ? Did you restore those with titanium backup ?

Yup wiped clean but different device so maybe that's why. I'll merge their upstream changes later on thanks!

Hammerhead has received lots of complaints on Lollipop, I don't have it, so I can't really tell on Omnirom. Nexus 4 do behave really well under Omnirom, better than on Kitkat in my opinion.

Any features other than its pure AOSP? Haven't checked on this build, but on other unofficial builds it was just stock AOSP..

OmniSwitch has been ported, Ambiant Display, wake up buttons are also back.

I just updated the thread with a first 5.1 build.
It's a very early build, I've been running it for 24 hours, so far no issue, but it needs more testing, it comes as is.
You can now use Paranoid Android gapps for 5.1 beta 2:

Yes, my bad, I forgot to update the screenshot, lacked the time to do so, will do today.
Still using 5.0.2 blobs on 5.1, since Google didn't update those yet, you might encounter some drm issues.
I actually never used Xposed, but 5.1 is less than 3 days old, give some time to devs to fix things
5.1 merge is actually going rather well, I didn't encounter any issue yet, but feel free to report if you encounter any, but as always, logcat please

report

quick report on the 5.1 build

-works great
-really smooth and fast
-location works , both modes
-google backup is kinda broken. It restores apps, but no user settings etc. Its probably a Gapps error anyway (PA BETA2 5.1). No account in backup settings, debug only
-some fcs when digging deep into settings (appops, smartlock)
-tweaks: button wake, long press tiles, adv reboot, ambient dispaly, omniswitch and prob. more
-root works with supersu 2.46

 

[kldoc]

For the fcs in settings, I'll look at it, didn't have the time to check smartlock yet, appops, I'll be honest, never tried, but gonna check those two.
Teams needs a bit of time to polish, as 5.1 only has been out for a few days
Thanks for the feedback.

 

[kldoc]

Ok, I tested those fcs you mentionned, but I couldn't reproduce those. Then I am running a newer build than the one that was in the main thread, so I just uploaded it (14032015). If you keep having those fcs with this build, did you wipe data before flashing it ?
Not much changes in that build, mostly bugfix related to mismerges from 5.0 to 5.1.
